From: Ludwig on
A friend recently told me about a form of therapy she'd heard of for
sufferers of panic attacks, but she'd forgotten the name of it. It think
it involves working out what the triggers are for your attacks, and
distracting yourself. I believe it involves an element of meditation as
well. It may or may not be autogenic therapy, I'm not sure.

Anyway if anyone thinks they know what this therapy is, please let me
know - it sounds the sort of thing I might find useful, although I'm not
setting my hopes too high.

Thanks.

Ludwig

I too have heard that EMDR is good.

EMDR *sometimes* helps people with PTSD. If your anxiety can't be traced
back to a clear trauma it won't do much. For agoraphobia exposure (the
behavioral aspect of CBT) works surprisingly often surprisingly well if
you work at it (note to self: WORK ON IT MORE!). It works even better in
conjuction with the cognitive aspect added.

Dear Ludwig,

Welcome to ASAPM! Any chance the therapy you are looking for is called
Neuro-Linguistic Programming?
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Neuro-linguistic_programming

This kind of therapy has a poor track record in treating anxiety disorders.
